"I am a Canadian by birth, but I am a Highlander by blood and feel under an obligation to do all I can for the sake of the Highlanders and their literature.... I have never yet spoken a word of English to any of my children. They can speak as much English as they like to others, but when they talk to me they have to talk in Gaelic."

I have heard 2 Tornadoes in my life. They sort of sounded like trains to me. One of them was within 200 yards of me while I was out Catfishing with a Friend of mine in the night. We did not see it coming. It was rated between a F0 to F1. That one was bad enough.

Isn't this sacrilegious? Couldn't you be arrested and thrown under the jail? Wouldn't the correct description be "sounds like an Indy car"?

That would be quite the sneaky tornado that would pull that little trick hear in Indianapolis. The unsuspecting resident could easily think that he/she was actually hearing the race due to some wierd atmoshperic trick and fail to take cover in time Of course it would be okay to sound like an Indy car in August when we have the Brickyard or in September when we have the F1 race.

Perhaps we could reach a compromise and they could start sounding like a space shuttle launch.

Right now the tornados in this town are quite predictable. They always take the south bypass (to avoid the traffic and besides there are more trailers on that route )
